I have three more sheets in stock and am guessing between 15-18 more after that. The skins alone are probably going to be 10-12 sheets. I doubt I'll be ordering much now until after Oshkosh.

This modest pile of scratch built Cruzer parts pretty much consumed one full sheet of 025 aluminum. Part built are from the rudder/fin, elevator/stab, flapperons, and wings. This picture was taken at the beginning of today's work session and by the end of it I have also consumed good chunk of a second sheet and have the rear wing ribs cut out and ready for bending.
